I currently own a captivate but now that I have two I am planning on selling and buying a Nexus S.
My question is Im assuming I will not be able to use 3G, however with a custom ROM would I be able to get "H" network or will I only be able to use EDGE?
Thanks in advance

Edge only. T-Mobile and ATT use different network bands. Otherwise I'd own a nexus s as well.

Me too!!! The phone is super amazing. I actually debated with myself for 3 hours whether or not to just buy it and deal with edge...but I decided not to.

I'm not sure to be honest. If in fact you can get hsdpa or hsupa or hspa with a custom rom or modem. I may purchase one. I can look into it a little.

The answer is no. The physical support is not there - it's not an issue of flashing the appropriate radio.
An AT&T version has been seen in FCC fillings as well as referenced in commits in the git repo - it will be available soon enough. If you get the current version for AWS you're stuck on edge.

You can't do this for the simple fact that "H" is based off of 3G. The 2 companies use different frequencies for 3G and as such, different hardware is required within the phone. Simply put, no 3g, no H no matter what ROM you flash.
the ATT version is coming soon, probably within the next few weeks. it already went thru FCC testing.

Seems source code has been out for awhile and some progress on other phones but alot of work will be needed for the charge. You can atleast get the key board if you want and I have seen other people try somethings but not much success atleast that Ive read.

People seem to keep forgetting that ICS is getting ported to all these 3G phones. It hasn't been ported to ANY 4G device that I know of.
We still need the RIL, thats what is holding us back from everything haha. CM7, CM9, ICS. We need that ril before we can move on.

Exactly and people keep forgetting that these "3G only" phones don't this RIL issue so of course it's going to be easier to get these ported over.

Work has already been started for the Rezound, so that seems like a good sign.
Plus, once the Galaxy Nexus releases on Verizon, wouldn't the source for that help us in any way?

Source is already out. I just think we don't have enough people that care about this phone enough to port it.

No idea. Honestly.
well I don't know the internal workings of android too well but afaik the RIL code is not included in the source the OEMs post and they are not obligated to release it so it has to be leaked or hacked up to work

True. However google DOES include RIL w/ the source code. SO hopefully when the LTE source code is released, it can be tweaked to work for the charge.
Not sayin' it will, just that its not all gloom and doom.

Our best shot is the VZW Galaxy Nexus source. Since its a Samsung made phone, it's possible the RIL is similar to the Charge.
I know you all hate to hear this, but it's coming December 8...only a week and a half and hopefully we will be further along with the RIL. Patience, Daniel-San, patience...

The devs shouldn't be focusing, in my opinion, on this until we have the RIL. Why did anyone buy this phone if they didn't want 4G more than anything else?? Features are nothing without function.
what you guys keep forgetting is that it doesn't matter if another LTE phone gets a port until it's one with the same chipset as our phone. No one has done the RIL for our chipset.
Hey, I'm new to this forum and I had a question. I was wondering, does 4G work on this ROM. Thanks!
Oh! And how do I edit my signature? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

So you get 4G connectivity? But on the ROM Page it says "phone works 2g/3g"

Yes...plus 4g is just marketing on our phones. I'd say it 3.5g Max!
I was using asopx and i was getting dl speeds aroung 4Mbps/s, I have since switched to IceColdSandwich and I get a bit faster speeds. So, yes 4G does work
What about Ascension? Is it any better?
I really hate be the bad guy here but it is well known that att doesn't have 4g network short of LTE. And no the inspire is not compatible with that network. As stated above the best you will get is the 3.5g network alot of us have been connecting to for years

And throttling, taking good old plans away, "droid" crap, Update's that brake flash player on 4.0 NOT 4.1 and modding the phone so that it asks for wifi 24/7/365/the rest of time.
I was really pissed at them before and now getting better some what. I hope that I can drop my AT&T line some time, but that's less likely now becuase I get very good "4G" or H+ (3-4 out of 4 bars every were there) at were I work with 5Mbs+ DL vs 1-3 bars of verizon "3G" as slow as sprint like 500kbs slow.( That's with both my razr and now my S3 by the way)
Any way flash player better still work or I will likely be going to WP8 for some of flash player to work. ( never did think that was going to happen. LOL)

Thanks! It's hard to tell by the article but I believe that to be true. I still think it's pretty cool for Samsung in general and gives me something to look forward to.

After using a GNEX for the past 6 months, I am actually loving TW. I was running a TW theme on JB to make it look like an S3 but you know what, it still wasn't an S3. Now I have a TW theme and it actually is an S3 : )
